Hi everyone,
My dad is currently on the 7th floor of Strong, wing 1400, room 4. Interestingly enough, this is the cardiac unit, because apparently they didn't have an room on the neuro floor for a man who had a scheduled brain surgery. Ahhhh, the hospital system.
Anyway, his head/incision looks good and he has fevers that go up and down as a result of the surgery. Fevers later down the road may indicate an infection (God forbid) but for right now, we are being told that they are normal.
He does wake up and look around and try to communicate per typical Walter-style so nothing has changed on that front.
We don't know for sure how long he will be in the hospital but as always, visitors are welcome.

Good Luck and God bless with your recovery Walter.
Hope to get up to visit you and see you too, Patty. Don't know when your knee surgery is scheduled, but wish you well.

Patty says: Today, Friday, Walter is coming home. The Dr. says that he is ready and I think and hope that he is. He looks good, very alert and eating well.
Next week you may come to see him.
Thanks to all that went up to Strong to see Walter. And thanks to all of the bloggers for their postings.
Enjoy the nice weather and have a beer for Walter!!
Geez, Walt - I never had a chance to get up to Strong to see you. I was going to stop up this weekend. Gino just called and said he was going to visit on his way home from work. Good thing I happened to be checking the blog and got Patty' s posting that you have gone home already!! Good for you, Mister!
See you soon. And Patty - hope you got a chance to get your knee fixed. We are delighted that Walt's hospital stay was relatively short.
